Konfoo.. Excellent work. Clean interface, works perfectly on my windows box.
I also want to report I got it working under Ubuntu using the latest wine (version 1.0-rc1).. not sure if anyone's reported success on that? Quick how-to:
Firefox through wine (easy as pie):
1) Install firefox (I used 2.0.0.14), flash switcher and etc. in wine.
2) Run pandorarip.exe with wine (I just double-click it on desktop)
3) Play pandora in firefox (through wine). Enjoy.
Firefox in Ubuntu without wine (a bit more work):
1) I used FF 3b5 which comes with Ubuntu Hardy
2) Get latest wine (I used 1.0-rc1)
3) Make a link to bridge between your native temp directory and wine's temp directory:
Wine tells PandoraRip the temp directory is in c:\windows\temp. When Pandora runs, it creates a folder in the temp directory called "plugtmp", but running firefox in linux, it puts this folder in /tmp/, so make a link for it:
ln -s /tmp/plugtmp [wine's drive_c]/windows/temp/
For me, the wine C drive is at /home/myusername/.wine/drive_c/
4) Run pandoraip.exe in wine (I just double-click it on desktop)
5) Play pandora in FF and enjoy.
What works:
Everything except (see below). It even puts the icon in the notification area (the taskbar).
What doesn't work:
On my system "Grab UnCached Tracks" doesn't work. However, I read above that it required being able to run promiscuous protocols? I'm pretty sure the Intel 3945 doesn't support this. The consequence is it misses a few tracks, but so far it's grabbed 9 out of 11, which isn't bad.
Overall, I'd say it's working so well I don't see a real need for a linux port. Heck, the sniffer might even work, it's just my card that doesn't support it. I don't have a good way to test that, unfortunately.
